Jay was undeniably enraged by this and said, "If all of you continue to spoil him like this, you’ll be the ones who suffer sooner or later."
The sisters lowered their heads, not daring to talk back to their father.
Inside the cave, Baby Zetty heard the commotion outside and guessed that her sisters must have arrived. At that moment, her mood was extremely complex. It was mixed with hints of joy and ecstasy, along with much more anxiety.
She staggered out of the cave and stopped at a distance, looking at Roxie and the others while feeling somewhat at a loss.
The time they had been separated was neither long nor short. However, for children hitting puberty, all of the changes were drastic whether it was in terms of height or charm.
When Baby Zetty saw how slender and graceful her sisters had gotten, yet she was deteriorating with age instead, her heart was simply overwhelmed with grievances.
Jay noticed the lingering tears in Baby Zetty's eyes and knew how bitter this reunion must be for her. He
thoughtfully said to Baby Zetty, "Winter, all of them have been poisoned. Can you take a look at them for m e?"
Baby Zetty nodded. "Okay.”
Then, she enthusiastically said to Roxie and the others, "Come with me."
Roxie and the others followed Baby Zetty into an open cave. There were plenty of medicinal herbs inside and the fragrance was permeating all over, making Roxie and the others feel rather cautious.
They glanced at each other and seemed to be exchanging messages with their eyes. They were obviously suspicious of Baby Zetty's identity and taking precautions for their own safety.
Baby Zetty turned around and showed them a smile while saying, "Well, come in."
Roxie was the first one to come inside. She did not trust Baby Zetty, but she trusted Daddy. The other sisters also walked in one after another.
"Granny Winter, are you a doctor?"
"Not really. Just a quack doctor who barely understands the art of healing," Baby Zetty said modestly.
Frankly speaking, Baby Zetty's medical skills were superb. However, she had merely studied medicine for a couple of years. With such a short amount of time, she was simply lacking in practical experience.
